>>Can you not spare a shred of sympathy for people who want to live in the city they work in but can’t because property owners won’t let them?

Of course I can. My sympathy goes both ways.

I'm not talking about simply increasing the supply of housing. The specific example we are discussing is a new skyscraper blocking the view from an existing one.

In which case the property value should be fine. As far as view goes, I believe I addressed that further up (but to recap: thoughts and prayers for people who are so burdened by others having a place to live).
